Ghana’s U17 side the Black Starlets will leave Ghana on Thursday for their second leg qualifier against Burkina Faso in the African U17 qualifiers.

Ghana walks into the return leg of the game riding on the back of a 5-1 advantage over their Burkinabe counterparts.

Though very thunderous for the Burkinabes, the Ghanaians are expected to nail them at their own backyard to avoid them from causing any surprises.

Coach Paa Kwesi Fabin and his boys will be hoping to secure a favorable result in other to make it to the next round of the qualifiers.

A contingent made of 18 players, officials and management are expected to leave for Burkina Faso.

The Black Starlets are chasing a Cup of Nations berth having missed out in the last edition of the competition after fielding an unqualified player.
